College Essay Guidance

The essay is one of the most important piece of the application. A "WOW" attention grabbing essay will convey to the admissions committee why their particular school could be a good fit for the applicant, and how that applicant can contribute to the campus community.

Mr. Bradshaw help his clients understand what an admissions committee looks for in an essay. You need an “essay that works”, one that is unique to who you are as a person. Your essay should be original and creative, a short story about you.

Your essay a narrative should have a catchy charming title, with humor that is used to relive tension. Consider turning a negative into a positive by revealing a weakness and then turning that negative into a positive learning experience. An essay should be well-written and enjoyable to the reader.

The application process only lets an admissions committee know your academic side. Your essay is your opportunity to bring your charismatic side to life. Show the admissions committee how you've overcome challenges or how you've recovered from failure.
